Things have been going just too good lately, especially about that project. The fact that I haven't been stressing about it has worried me from time to time. After all, a little concern is a good thing. How can I tell…
The project is finished! - conditionally. Meaning if I had to turn it in right now, I could. The file input format isn't quite what the assignment specified, it doesn't find one small thing that I couldn't figure out…
This'll be just a quick note. I was doing so good last week, posting something at least somewhat meaningful nearly every day. And this week . . . I scarcely thought of it! I spent a good 9 hours today working on my co…
I was at the computer lab today and took the opportunity to scan some fabric. Here is the blue homespun that I'm currently working on; here is the green paisley that I talked about so much in my second-to-last post. I k…
For Your Consideration. On the Defensive Again Perhaps on the theory that the best offense is a good defense, John Kerry raised questions about his own patriotism in a Pittsburgh speech Friday, falsely accusing Republ…
Continuing from yesterday: The new green bodice. I decided on a square neckline of some kind; this would clearly differentiate it from the ordinary ballgowns of which we see so much. I'd see two major varieties: a wide…
This will be a costuming post. Last night I couldn't get to sleep, which happens periodically. I had to find something to think about besides how I couldn't get to sleep and how few hours I had left in which to sleep. …
Right after I posted my (to me) boring post last night, I picked up Emma to read while I was getting ready for bed. (I have a remarkable ability to combine nearly any activity with reading a book.) A thought randomly o…
It's a lot easier to post after a weekend at home. When I'm at school, things tend to go in a round of classes that would be mind-numbingly repetitive if I wrote about it. Of course, I suppose I could write about thing…
I love being at home! Of course, in some ways it's hard. The people you know and love the best are usually the ones who can irritate and anger you the most. I'm much more in charge of "my life" and what I do when I'…
I'm back at home for Easter! It's been a so-so day, though. I'm feeling a little mellow; not wildly excited about anything, but certainly not upset. The Lord has blessed me in so many ways this week, but sadly I'm …
My bike is back!!! Leslie and Paige this morning ran across it, randomly stuck under the stairs outside Rudder. My original guess makes since - someone just took off on it, rode it to a couple classes, and then left …
Today has been full of variety, at the very least. It all began when I looked out the window at 7:00 a.m. and saw a big dark cloud west-northwest . . . Being a hobbit - er, girl - of some intelligence, I foresightedly …
I just finished another post on The Ambassador's Son. I really enjoyed writing this part; I think it was the challenge. I had to bring three ships into action in such a way that one would be captured by a second, which…
